rescue team
Saves trapped people
A rescue team is a group organized to find and extract people from dangerous situations—collapsed buildings, mountains, floodwaters, or remote wilderness.
The term covers both professional units like search and rescue squads and volunteer organizations: The rescue team reached the stranded hikers before nightfall.
Members typically have specialized training in emergency response, first aid, and survival techniques.
